the american country inn and bed and breakfast cookbook

This cookbook is great !!!! i borrowed it from a friend and never gave it back (bad!!!) but it really is a great source for entertaining. Fanstastic and easy recipes. A good way to impress your friends with your cooking. Also what i like is they usually have serveral recipes for similar dishes so lets say you want to make scalloped potatoes - you can look at them all and then kind of use the info to make your own variation with the pieces of the recipes you think sound good. Also it is good if you are doing theme parties. I love asian cooking we were having a party where i needed to bring an asian salad - they have like 5 different types. and they arent what you would expect. Note this is just not breakfast foods - all types of cooking are in this book and from all types of us regions.

One of the most spotted and stained cookbooks on my shelf!

I received this cookbook as a gift from my husband when the first edition was published. I liked it so much and used it so often I continue to give it to friends every year. If I am in a quandary as to what to prepare for company, or just looking for several versions of an old classic, this is usually my first and last stop. I especially like it for pastry, cake and breakfast recipes (not surprisingly). When we are travelling, I also use it as a guidebook!

Simply the best cookbook I own!

My sister gave me this cookbook for my birthday a few years ago. When I found out there was a Volume 2, I rushed right out and bought that one, also. You can tell by looking at both books that they are the ones I reach for most often, because both of them are battered beyond belief!

Excellent source for that "special" occasion recipe

We absolutely love this cookbook. It is our first choice when we are looking for that special recipe for a special occasion - or just for everyday! Variety is excellent - breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, dessert - it's all there. Can't wait to get Volume 2
